## Setup
### Make
It's common to want to compile things as quickly as possible. Ensuring `make` has the right `--jobs` flag will ensure all processors are utilized when building software projects. To do this effectively, you can set `MAKEFLAGS` in your shell configuration/profile:
# On macOS with Fish shell:
export MAKEFLAGS="--jobs "(sysctl -n hw.ncpu)
# On macOS with Bash/ZSH shell:
export MAKEFLAGS="--jobs $(sysctl -n hw.ncpu)"
# On Linux with Fish shell:
export MAKEFLAGS="--jobs "(nproc)
# On Linux with Bash/ZSH shell:
export MAKEFLAGS="--jobs $(nproc)"
